Why would you want cam lope on a V6? I asked the Camaro guys and they get all huffy.

I hear ya on that.

I decided not to enable the cam on my car, as it just doesn't suit it. But, the target is the guy with a Camaro, running a CAI, long tubes, and exhaust. If I were that guy, I think I'd enable it. Even if you install it, you're still able to toggle it of/on with the cruise control button.

I didn't enable the g-cam on my tune either. That's not the sound I want coming out of my car, I'm past that stuff. Got the Iceolater and oil catch can ordered and will install upon receipt. Have had the KPE intake and ported throttle body already, so with the manifold spacer and catch can the only other item I would install is LT headers if I could get them. KPE keeps saying they will have them, but....

I'm curious why some folks are installing aftermarket catch cans on these motors. I used to run them on the high hp turbocharged cars I built, but are they really necessary with a lightly modded NA application like this?

Pull off your throttle body, and reach inside the snout of your intake manifold. There's a small sump, right in the front. I'd bet you, that it's got a bunch of oil in it. The oil ingestion on these cars is pretty bad.
